- ABSTRACT Method of reforming hydrocarbons which comprises treating a mixture of hydrogen and hydrocarbon at a temperature from 400C. to 650C.
- a catalyst containing from 0.01 to 5 percent by weight of platinum, from 0.01 to 5 percent by weighth of lead and from 0.01 to 10 percent by weight of at least one member selected from the group consisting of copper, silver, gold, boron, thallium, titanium, zirconium, vanadium, tantalum, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, thorium, yttrium, phosphorus, antimony, cerium, scandium, gallium, indium, hafnium and niobium.
- This invention relates to a methodof reforming hydrocarbons and catalyst used therefor. More particularly, it is concerned with a method of reforming hydrocarbons using a catalyst containing platinum, lead and a third component which is used for reforming reaction mainly involving dehydrogenation of naphthenes and isomerization and dehydrocyclization of paraffins.
- the prior-art platinum-alumina catalyst which is low in activity and high rate of deactivation, was hardly used under severe reaction conditions. For example, the use in the operation at a low pressure such as about 10 kg./cm. or in the operation at a high space velocity (SV) was not economical.
- SV space velocity
- This invention relates to catalytic composition containing, in addition to platinum and lead, a third promoter component and a method'of reforming hydrocarbons using the same.
- the third component are used copper, silver, gold, boron, thallium, titanium, zirconium, vanadium, tantalum, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, thorium, yttrium, phosphorous, antimony, cerium, scandium, gallium, indium, hafnium and niobium.
- the starting material for the platinum, lead and third components may be used a metal or a compound such as oxide, hydroxide, hydrate, salt with an organic or inorganic acid or the like. Particularly with the platinum, it is preferred to use a halogen-containing compound thereof thus preparing a halogen-containing catalyst.
- the amount of the components added may be optionally chosen depending upon the conditions under which the catalyst is prepared or used.
- the catalyst contains 0.01-5percent by weight, especially 0. l-lpercent by weight of platinum, 0.01-5 percent by weight, especially 0.l-2 percent by weight of lead and 0.0l percent by weight, especially 0.05-2 percent by weight of the third component.
- the ratio of platinum to lead of more'than l to 3, namely, the amount of lead contained by less than 3 times the amount of platinum produces more effective catalysts. The reason why the ratio of platinum to lead is defined in such a manner is considered to be in the action of lead as poisonous to platinum when contained beyond such a range as defined above.
- the carrier may preferably be used silica, silicaalumina, alumina or the like.
- Alumina produces especially good results.
- the reforming reaction as referred to herein which is carried out using the above-mentioned catalyst, means dehydrogenation of naphthenes, isomerization, hydrocracking and dehydrocyclization of paraffins and the like.
- hydrocarbon are commercially'conveniently used naphtha, kerosene, gas oil and the like, although a purehydrocarbon may be used.
- the hydrogencontaining gas employed may contain inert gas or gas such as methane, ethane and propane and the like.
- Byproduct gas in the production of ethylene and the off gas from the instant reaction may be used.
- the reaction temperature is from 400 to 650C., preferably from 450 to 550C.
- a pressure from I to 50 kg./cm is applied in the reaction and commercially advantageous is a pressure within the range from 5 to 30 kg./cm.
- the catalyst of this invention which, when used at a high space velocity under a pressure from 5 to 15 kg./cm affords high yield of aromatics, high octane value as well as low rate of deactivation, is very much economical.
- the volume ratio of hydrogen to hydrocarbon supplied which has an effect upon the life of the catalyst and/or the composition of the product, is suitably from 1 to 15, preferably from 3 to 10.
- the rate of feeding which depends upon the reaction pressure and the composition of the product is from 0.1 to 10 hr. in LHSV, preferably from 0.5 to 5.0 hr..
- EXAMPLE 1 Gamma-alumina was impreganted with an aqueous solution of a mixture of chloroplatinic acid H,[PtCl,]-6H,O, lead nitrate Pb(NO and copper nitrate Cu(NO -3l-I,O, and then subjected to evapora tion to dryness. The resulting mass was calcined at 580C. for 1 hour to prepare a catalyst of the composition (0.5% Pt 0.4% Pb 0.2% Cu)/Al,0 A SUS' 32 reaction tube, 14 mm. in inner diameter, was filled with 10 ml. of the catalyst which was then subjected to reduction under hydrogen at 530C. for 1 hour.
- a gaseous mixture of hydrogen and naphtha of the composition cited below) of a ratio of 1175 was passed through the reaction tube at an LHSV of 2.0 hr., a reaction pressure of 14 kg./cm. and a reaction temperature of 515C.
- the yield of the product by weight on the basis of naphtha was given below.
- the results of the reaction are those on average during 50 hours.
- Liquid yield 83 Benzene l. Toluene 8.
- QA (Aromatics containing 8 carbon atoms) 22.
- CA (Aromatics containing 9 carbon atoms) 9.
- C -P (Aromatics containing can N N O HF 10 or more carbon atoms)
- Total aromatics 6 ratio of H to naphtha (identical with one in Example 1) of 1:5.0. Properties of the liquid products were as follows:
- Catalytic components (Note) 1n Examples 3 and 8. the third component was added to the platinum-alumina catalyst calcined in advance. In other examples, alumine was impregnated with a solution of mixture of the three or four components.
- EXAMPLE 14 An aqueous solution of chloroplatinic acid l-l [PtCl l- 61-1 0 and lead nitrate Pb(NO,,), respectively V at a concentration of 0.1 mole/liter. was poured onto alumina sol (assay 10 percent by weight), followed by evaporation to dryness. The resulting mass was calcined at 600C. for 30 min. and then impregnated with an aqueous cobalt solution. Evaporation to dryness and calcining at 550C. for 1 hour yielded a catalyst of the composition (0.5% Pt- 0.2% Pb 0.1 Co)/Al O Using 25in].
- a reaction was carried out for a gaseous mixture of a hydrogen: naphtha (of the composition cited below, which was the same in the examples given hereinbelow) of ratio of 1:5.0 under the conditions: Reaction temperature 510C., Wl-lSV 2.5 hr. and reaction pressure 10 kg./cm.
- Liquid hydrocarbon yield and yield of aromatics on average during hours on the weight basis of the supplied naphtha were 85.3 percent and 63.2 percent respectively.
- REFERENCE EXAMPLE 3 REFERENCE EXAMPLE 4 A reaction was carried out under the same conditions as in Example 23 except for composition of the catalyst being (0.3% l t;0.3% Pb)[Al O Research gctan e numbers on average during 50, and 168 hours from -tlEilapsiam'nays 103 2. tes w We claim:
